Hi all,

In the kernel source, when i do "make menuconfig" i get the error:

rm -f include/asm
( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm)
make -C scripts/lxdialog all
make[1]: Entering directory 
`/home/russell/Kernels/2.4.20-win4lin-ipmasq/linux-2.4.20/scripts/lxdialog'
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lncurses
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

>> Unable to find the Ncurses libraries.
>>
>> You must have Ncurses installed in order
>> to use 'make menuconfig'

make[1]: *** [ncurses] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/home/russell/Kernels/2.4.20-win4lin-ipmasq/linux-2.4.20/scripts/lxdialog'
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2


I think i *have* got ncurses installed, because midnight commander runs, and sudo ldconfig -p:

342 libs found in cache `/etc/ld.so.cache'
        ...
        libncurses.so.5 (libc6) => /lib/libncurses.so.5
        ...

locate ncurses:

/lib/libncurses.so.5
/lib/libncurses.so.5.2
/usr/doc/libncurses5
/usr/doc/libncurses5-dev
/usr/include/ncurses.h
/usr/include/ncurses_dll.h
/usr/lib/libncurses++.a
/usr/lib/libncurses.a
/usr/lib/libncurses.so

"make menuconfig" used to run ok, so it's something that
happened to the system (2.4.20, gcc-2.95.4, libc6).
